Avoiding reboots in definitely preferred. I've heard very good things about Mac's sleep speeds, but I have a home built PC and Lenovo ThinkPad that do ok. They take around 5-10 seconds to go from in or out of sleep which is fast enough that I don't think about it and I usually only reboot to install Microsoft Updates, which is a different story.
